Attendees at the Polkadot booth can claim Proof of Presence (PoP) tokens, which will unlock stages in the evolution of their DOTphin avatars. These avatars are influenced by real-time ecological data and linked to marine conservation efforts.
Powered by dynamic NFTs, DOTphin seeks to boost event engagement and create real-world ecological impact, turning participation into an interactive experience. Supported by the Polkadot community through OpenGov, the project debuted at Polkadot Decoded 2024.
DOTphin merges blockchain with environmental impact, allowing users to engage with NFTs while supporting real-world conservation. By interacting with the DOTphin avatars, participants contribute to marine preservation through data provided by SNI’s partner, Aquasearch.
SNI CEO Catherine Bischoff explains, “Through DOTphin, we have pioneered a groundbreaking approach to merge community engagement and the protection of our natural world by connecting digital collectibles with living entities. We add meaning to virtual realms by distributing dynamic assets that are verifiably making real world impact.”
Attendees can claim their avatars by visiting the SNI website or scanning QR codes at the event. Once collected, avatars can be evolved through the REAL portal, where each user’s collected PoPs will influence the growth and appearance of their DOTphin.
The avatars feature a design inspired by Japanese anime to create a meaningful connection between users and their digital companions.
